Thursday morning started with a bit of shocking news via NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Per his sources, running back David Montgomery and left tackle Taylor Decker are not expected to play on Thursday against the Green Bay Packers.
“There was some optimism early in the week, but I am told Montgomery (is) not expected to play tonight,” Pelissero said on “Good Morning Football” Thursday morning.
UPDATE: Justin Rogers of The Detroit News is reporting that Pelissero’s information is incorrect. Rogers tweeted out the following:
“I’ve been informed by a team source that Decker and Montgomery will suit up tonight and the NFL Network report from this morning is incorrect.
